It was awesome. Cab was killing it. Somebody would have to have captured the footage from the streaming video. I&#39;m not sure we&#39;ll see this one again.

Like you, I didn&#39;t have access to the skateparks, if there were any around, and didn&#39;t have the equipment to gain access to them anyway if there were. It isn&#39;t consuming my life, but I find myself wanting to skate at any given point in time. I love that I am a father, husband, homeowner, and also a skater to boot. Coincidently, my wife LOVES skater-dudes, so it&#39;s helping me out in other ways too.Charleshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09121573676968180718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5983130058906217321.post-21337743781206558372010-05-17T21:41:11.722-04:002010-05-17T21:41:11.722-04:00I have a Nash Nightmare board too! picked it up off eBay for 20 bucks.

Irie member the first Airwalk hitops were canvas and looked like Vans. The leather prototypes were much tougher. I skated a hole thru the bottom of the shoe well before the sides were blown out. And as for the lace protector on some of the shoes I remember cutting those off with an X-Acto knife right at the skate shop.

My wife bought me a Powell Skull and Sword reissue for my 34th birthday. I started riding as much as time would allow. In two years I have reversed the effects of fatty liver disease and I look at everything through the eyes of a skater. Lucky for me my wife is very supportive of my addiction. So is our son. I&#39;ve got him on board now as well and am very lucky for all of this. <br>It is hard to make everyone understand our obsession with &quot;useless wooden toys&quot; but try. And be patient. If you can get your kids involved at some point then even better.<br>Stay Positive and thanks for the insights.Jeffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17807956434333466277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5983130058906217321.post-81754354383130810492008-12-27T15:17:00.000-05:002008-12-27T15:17:00.000-05:00Hi Kraston. I too am addicted. Luckily for me, I was a skater when I met my wives. The first wife thought I&#39;d &quot;grow out of it eventually.&quot; &#39;Tis one of the reasons she is now my ex-wife. It was made clear to the second wife (as a girlfriend) that the package included a skateboard. She has been more than supportive, and has even allowed me to turn every major trip in our lives (including our honeymoon in NZ) into a skate trip of some sort. I am truly blessed. <br><br>I am also obsessed (hence my constant perusing of the interweb for more skate input when I&#39;m not skating) yet it hasn&#39;t affected my work (unless you count my office being decorated with autographs and skate action figures). Though my wife has threatened to leave me on the couch to rot if ever I severely injure myself again. (She had to drive everywhere and cart me around for 8 weeks when I folded my ankle a few years ago.) She&#39;s no longer willing to do that with the kiddo now. I&#39;m on my own. <br><br>So when I get the opportunity to skate, I thank her profusely and pad up. (Though I was fully padded with the ankle incident.) Hopefully your family will come to understand that you are a skater. It&#39;s like the color of your skin, and the reason fish swim, birds sing, and the sky is blue... it just IS.<br><br>Good luck.Nikolihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18106000234195417439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5983130058906217321.post-45341618725977151482008-12-22T21:38:00.000-05:002008-12-22T21:38:00.000-05:00That would be a killer score these days. Only one pool under my own belt, and that was just last year (at 35). So you&#39;re not alone. But ya should pad up all the time... yer still a Dad whether it&#39;s a pool with brick coping, or ramp with steel... Gravity seems to work much harder on my without pads anymore...Nikolihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18106000234195417439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5983130058906217321.post-43804839520400959932008-12-21T13:14:00.000-05:002008-12-21T13:14:00.000-05:00http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T3JjdAz1Sks<br>Here&#39;s the link.<br>I forget stuff a lot.Jeffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17807956434333466277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5983130058906217321.post-9109174070122555052008-12-21T13:13:00.000-05:002008-12-21T13:13:00.000-05:00I remember the Nash &quot;executioner&quot; well.

Not &quot;Blur&quot; either but the really soft ones. <br>Thanks for the trip!<br>Check out Neil and Steve shopping and checking out some similar boards...Jeffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17807956434333466277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5983130058906217321.post-89857465029935742662008-12-19T15:02:00.000-05:002008-12-19T15:02:00.000-05:00no kiddin&#39; man!
